T2 and Jetstar reduces flight options to just JQ 171 to Christchurch and JQ 35 to Denpasar Bali.

Im going with Christchurch as Air New Zealand has a flight 25 mins after the Jetstar one. Also less costly to fly 11 teams to NZ, also Indonesia is still a little risky as a destination. I don't think this would be a connecting flight since Jetstar are classed as a budget plane and not a "connecting" type of airline.

Makes sense to me. Those will be some expensive airline tickets.I bet you're right about Christchurch. What do you mean Indonesia is risk ?

Nothing from Bali yet? I can't find any tweets only one in Indonesian that there "is a rumour race is in Bali". Surely someone would have spoted them by now? Unless all the Aussie tourists are too drunk to tweet right now.

Just a thought, if the contestants haven't been spotted in Bali, they may have headed over to one of the Gili Islands?Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno or Gili Air.

Two different modes of transport available - either by flying to Lombok and then travel by car followed by a short boat trip (first flight out each day from Bali is around 9.00 am), flight takes around 15 mins. The alternative is by one of the fast boats, the first of many boats leave around 8.00 am via Lombok and the trip is just over 2 hours.
